GA review (see here for criteria)

This is a nice piece of work, and a bit of a hell for a reviewer!

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    some bits are close to WP:NOR
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    Sorry guys.. The rational is that you can find a tonne of images under Fair-use and its slightly biased towards the other teams.
    Um, so is that a pass? –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 13:51, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry... its a fail... User:Itfc+canes=me Talk Contributions 17:41, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's not, until you provide a reason(s) why. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 14:15, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There you go... the article is on hold... i just couldn't get the template to work correctly. User:Itfc+canes=me Talk Contributions 17:41, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
But you still have yet to provide a rationale for your actions. The nominator is expected to know what you find concerning about the article? –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 20:36, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Happy? User:Itfc+canes=me Talk Contributions 11:43, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, no. Your job as a reviewer is to list the concerns you have about the article, in order for the nominator to know what to fix. Images are not a requirement for GA, so that is not a valid reason to place an article on-hold. Cheers, –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 13:35, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(out) Yeah, Itfc, you really need to be specific. For example, you can't just say "some bits are close to OR"--you have to say what bits are close to OR and how. Check out Dana Boomer for an excellent GA reviewer who is very, very specific about her concerns. roux ] [x] 22:20, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Its been failed as it has been over 7 days since the GA review and there has not been enough improvments... i'm gonna run away from Gaing now.... User:Itfc+canes=me Talk Contributions 11:39, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Cheers, but theres no reason to give up reviewing GACs, just take your time, read through Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles and possibly seek getting a reviewing mentor. Sunderland06 (talk) 13:10, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
